War Jewel

Soundly beaten when eighth on his first start for this trainer at Vaal Classic upped to 1m1f last week; yet to win over 7f and has had lots of chances since last win; hard to make a case for him as now looks to be past his prime

This tight-looking race poses an interesting puzzle - Bloomington is a major contender while Noble Sniper is capable of better than his rather disappointing latest effort. However, the suggestion is COURANTE who can enhance her CD record.
